I've been meaning to report this myself.

In the 4 years that that particular line has been there, not once had
anyone else run into it on Gentoo until a couple months ago.

And it isn't a case of end users missing it as we have arch testers
that test packages before marking them suitable for public consumption.

Alpha is one of the arches.

As for the dropped support, has the Alpha specific code been ripped
out? Would it still presumably run on Alpha?
